Zongman: Why is your comic full of knives?

"Hey, I actually have a gift?"

Yinsha saw Zhang looking at the gift box in front of him with a look of surprise on his face.

"Even if there is no merit, there is still hard work...It's just a joke, you won't be angry, right?"

Yinsha rolled her eyes at Zhang Hui and said,"If I were so easily angry, I would have resigned long ago! ?"

"I have been taken care of by you these days, so isn't it natural for me to give you a Christmas gift?"

Yinsha saw Zhang Lu smiled:

"It's really not easy to hear a decent word from a guy like you!"

"Thank you, this is my gift.

Yinsha saw Zhang take out a wrapped gift box from his workstation and handed it to him.

"I originally wanted to wait until tomorrow's annual meeting to give it to you, but I didn't expect you to give it to me first."

"Well, after all, tomorrow might be very busy. If I forget it by accident, wouldn't my gift be in vain?"

Speaking of this, Nangong Mu was a little surprised by the gift box handed over by Yinsha Jianzhang.

He didn't expect that the other party would prepare it for him.

You know, he bullied her a lot.

Noticing Nangong Mu's surprised expression, Yinsha Jianzhang shrugged and said:

"After all, without you, Teacher Nangong, I wouldn't be who I am today."

"Even though the teacher's teasing sometimes makes me angry, the teacher's kindness cannot be repaid with this cheap gift from me."

"Compared to my current income, this gift seems a bit cheap, please don't despise it."

Nangong Mu smiled and said,"Yinsha Editor specially prepared this gift for me, how could I despise it?"

"Then I will accept it without hesitation."

"By the way, is Editor-in-Chief Minano in the company?"

"Editor-in-Chief Minano, I will meet with the editor-in-chief at the annual meeting tomorrow."

"Then please ask Editor Yinsha to pass this gift to Editor Minano"

"OK"

"So please take care of me next year, Yinsha Editor~"

"It's me, the newbie who doesn't know much, who needs more care."

Seven, three, seven," Yinsha said, and Zhang suddenly reacted:

"Wait, it’s only December 23rd, isn’t it too early to say this! ?"

"Well, why not just say it again when we pay New Year's greetings?"

Yinsha couldn't help shaking her head and smiling bitterly.

Then Nangong Mu went to Fujimi again and sent the gift prepared for Machida Yuanzi.

As expected, he also received a return gift.

"Well, the only gifts left to be delivered are the last three."

Don't worry about these four gifts.

Just find a time to deliver them tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

"Oh, and there are gifts for the fans."

Thinking of this,

Nangong Mu was troubled for a moment, then his eyes lit up and he had an idea.

"Hopefully the guys will like it."

Back home

"Thank you for your hard work. It must be cold outside, right?"

Mahiru stepped forward and took the initiative to help Nangong Mu take off his coat for going out.

"You know my physique. In this temperature, I will be fine even if I wear a short-sleeved shirt outside."

Especially after studying with Miss Youer for a period of time.

His physical fitness has become better and better.

For example, when doing special training with Mahiru, the girl can't stand it for about an hour.

But he didn't feel anything. He also secretly experimented with wearing a short-sleeved shirt when he was alone.

The low temperature outside has no effect on him.

Of course, if you really want to wear a short-sleeved shirt outside in this kind of weather, you will definitely be mistaken for a giant panda.

Although he doesn't care about other people's eyes, it doesn't mean that he likes to be watched.

Retracting his thoughts and looking at the lovely girl in front of him, Nangong Mu couldn't help but smile and tease:

"I feel like Mahiru is acting more and more like a mistress now."

The girl's cheeks flushed slightly and she whispered:

""Mu-kun, don't make fun of me."

Nangong Mu shook his head and smiled. He didn't mean to laugh at the girl.

He felt this way from the bottom of his heart.

Returning to the living room with Mahiru, he could see Mashiro and Eriri curled up in the quilt, facing the digital tablet in their hands, with focused and serious expressions.

However, Nangong Mu's arrival still affected the two of them a little.

Mashiro raised his head and nodded to Nangong Mu:"Mu."

After saying hello, he looked back at the digital tablet in his hand.

Eriri put down the things in her hands and said lazily:

"Hey, you're back."

Nangong Mu nodded in response, then spoke curiously:

"I heard that my uncle is back. Wouldn’t he be very busy these days?"

"No."

Ying Lili waved her hands, her face looking a little depressed:

"After Christmas, I'll go back there."

"Aren't you together?"

"I am a serialized cartoonist now, I can’t leave, I can’t leave at all!"

Now"Food Wars! Shokugeki no Soma" is getting better and better.

Every questionnaire survey receives a lot of praise from readers.

Although there are also some replies such as"the drawings are too rough" and"Is it really okay to publish such things in a magazine for teenagers", for Eriri who has been in the industry for many years, this little doubt is harmless!

But when it comes to serialized comics, Nangong Mu remembered a question

"By the way, is it hard to maintain the pace of one chapter per week?"

"Do you need some assistants?"

Ying Lili didn't try to be brave. She thought about it seriously and said,"It is indeed a bit hard."

"After all, I am not a monster like you. I can draw it once every time and there is no need to modify it."

"Not to mention maintaining my studies at the same time......."

"Every time I think about how you can still remain the top student in the grade while serializing two comics at the same time, I can't help but want to open your brain and see what's going on!"

"What a horrible statement!"

The corner is funny and afraid of limited transfers

"So you want an assistant?"

"I have almost used up all the manuscripts I saved during the holiday. If I want to continue the series normally, this is the only way, right?"

Eri said helplessly.

"The sound sand editor will help you fix it."

"I also thought about finding a time to tell her after the annual meeting."

Nangong Mu nodded:"Then you guys are busy outside, I will also go inside to prepare gifts for the fans"

"Preparing gifts for fans?"

"If it's just a colorful painting, it feels a bit too perfunctory, so I'll just draw a short story and give them some candy."

Ying Lili was surprised:"When did you find your conscience?"

Every time he gave out knives, his happy expression was like the embodiment of joy, and it's not an exaggeration!

"What do you mean I have a guilty conscience?"

Nangong Mu said unhappily,"That's all for the story. I am a fan-loving person."

Regarding this point, Ying Lili couldn't deny it.

After all, it's fine to draw comics, but he also writes songs and edits videos.

Looking at the entire industry, only Nangong Mu is the only one who does this!

"However, you are really an involution expert!"

At this time, the industry generally draws a colorful picture as a New Year's greeting, and you go and make a short story and upload it!

I can almost imagine the wailing of other cartoonists!

If you want to know why, she is also one of the victims of involution!

"Want to make fans happy, blame me?"

Nangong Mu returned to the house.

He opened the document, edited the copy first, and then began to think about the arrangement of the storyboard.

Not too many, just 4 for one story.

"Four Lies", whose story has just begun, is not included.

Only"Magic Circle" is included.》、《After all, although"Three Questions of the End of the World" has just started serialization like"Four Lies", the former light novel currently has only the last two volumes left to be completed, and the story can be said to have been told for the most part.

"Four Lies" is a real young grass, and if there is a spin-off at this time, it will reveal a lot of information.

Mahiru looked at the two girls drawing comics outside the house and the man working hard inside the house.

A helpless smile appeared on his face.

"It's already vacation time, but they're more serious than when they were in school!"

Although I know that these three people are working hard for their dreams, I still can't help but feel a little distressed.

"I can't fall behind too much!"

Although the only thing I can do is to ensure their logistics,

I have to do my best!

As for my own dreams, just being able to stay together like this forever is enough!

Thinking of this, Mahiru showed a gentle smile on her face. (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

When working, time always passes quickly.

Almost in the blink of an eye, it was the afternoon of Christmas Eve.

"Mashiro, it's time to leave."

This time, she didn't wait inside Nangong Mu's house, but waited outside Mahiru's house.

As for Eriri, she went back to change clothes in the afternoon.

""Wait."

Mashiro's anxious voice came from inside.

After a while, Mahiru came out of the house first.

""Maki-kun, it's impolite to urge a girl to change her clothes."

Then, Mashiro came out from behind.

Her brows were slightly furrowed, and her face was visibly uncomfortable.

"So strange."

She was wearing a pure white dress and her snow-white skin, as if she was a snow elf from a paradise.

Her long hair was tied up behind her head, adding a bit of elegance.

The light makeup on her face complemented her beauty.

She was wearing a pair of 5cm crystal high heels, and with her ethereal and simple temperament, she looked like a princess who was not familiar with the world.

It was obvious that she would be the absolute protagonist at the party tonight.

So much so that when he saw the girl for the first time, he was a little absent-minded.

""Mu, are you fascinated by me?"

Mashiro's voice was a little shy, and her fair skin was almost stained with a hint of pink.

Nangong Mu came back to his senses and nodded with a smile:"Mashiro is so beautiful, isn't it natural to be attracted to her?"

Faced with such praise, Mashiro showed a smile from the heart.

Then a gust of cold wind blew, and the girl's face turned a little pale again.

Mahiru reluctantly put the coat in his hand on Mashiro...

"I told you it's cold outside, so I told you to put it on first and take it off when you get to the venue."

Mashiro said stubbornly,"If you want Maki to see"

"I've seen it, so don't catch a cold."

"But you have to take good care of Mashiro, okay?" Nangong Mu nodded with a smile:"Don't worry."

The two went downstairs together and got in the car.

The car was prepared by Shueisha, and among all the newcomers, Nangong Mu was probably the only one who could enjoy such treatment.

The venue of the annual meeting was in a high-end hotel, and the standard of meals on weekdays was tens of thousands of yen.

It can be seen that a lot of thought was put into today's annual meeting.

When Nangong Mu and Mashiro arrived at the venue, there were already quite a few people there.

As a newcomer, Nangong didn't know any of them, and he didn't want to make friends, so he took Mashiro to get some drinks and food, and lay down in the corner.

Despite this, it was still from time to time. Sometimes there would be surprised eyes falling on the two of them.

But no one came forward to disturb them.

After all, not all cartoonists in the industry are otakus, housegirls, and socially anxious people.

But this part still occupies the majority.

It is obviously impossible to approach and chat and communicate as if nothing had happened, like the social cow.

Nangong Mu was extremely satisfied to be able to have such peace and quiet.

Paying attention to the location of the entrance,

Nangong Mu soon saw Eriri.

He walked forward and pulled the girl to the corner, and the iron triangle was completely complete.

Eriri was wearing a yellow evening dress, which set off her delicate figure to the fullest.

"Relax a little."

Nangong Mu handed the girl a glass of juice.

"I...I'm not nervous!"

He argued like this, spinning the cup of juice and almost spilling it.

"After all, she is a little socially anxious!"

Nangong Mu smiled.

The girl touched her little canine teeth and took a sip.

She relaxed a lot.

Then she cast a curious look at Mashiro:"Aren't you nervous, Mashiro?"

"Why are you nervous?" Mashiro was puzzled.

Eriri was stunned for a moment, then realized that this question was nonsense!

As a world-class oil painter, wouldn't the other party attend few banquets?

This calm demeanor shows that he has long been accustomed to such occasions.

Although Eriri's family has hosted many banquets, she always feels that it is different from a banquet full of cartoonists, and she used to be a book painter, so she feels nervous.

After changing her mindset, she completely relaxed.

Soon.

The annual meeting officially began, and Yinsha saw Zhang Ye coming over.

As a small editor who attended this kind of banquet for the first time, it can be seen that she is the most nervous one among the people present.

The process of the banquet is nothing more than those things.

Speech, award ceremony, looking forward to the future......

Among the three, only Nangong Mu gained something, including the Best Newcomer Award, the Readers' Most Popular Work Award, and the Best Creativity Award.......

The two girls were mainly for company.

After a series of processes were completed, under the leadership of editor-in-chief Minano,

Nangong Mu met many old seniors.

Such a dinner party was finally over.

Sitting in the car, Ying Lili couldn't help but sigh and expressed her thoughts on attending the annual meeting.

"So tired!"

"Yeah."

Mashiro nodded beside 2.6.

Nangong Mu was helpless:"That's why I told you not to come at the beginning."

"Who do you think it's for?"

Ying Lili glared at Nangong Mu in annoyance, but she didn't say it out loud.

Mashiro said frankly:"Because Mu is coming, I'm curious."

Nangong Mu shook his head helplessly.

He didn't continue the topic, but looked at Ying Lili:

"Are you free tomorrow Christmas Day?"

"I'm busy."

Ying Lili said helplessly:"After all, my dad came back specially to celebrate the festival."

"But you don't have to go back tonight."

After saying that, she blushed and shyly looked away.

Nangong Mu smiled and invited:"Would you like to stay at my place tonight?"

Ying Lili hesitated for a moment, then nodded:

"Then I will accompany you for a while tonight."

How disingenuous!

Half an hour later, the three of them got off the car.

""Hiss, it's so cold!"

Although she was wearing a coat, the change in temperature after getting off the air conditioner still made Yinglili's face change.

Zhenbai didn't say anything, but just held Nangong Mu's hand a little harder than before.

"Come in quickly."

Nangong Mu grabbed one in each hand and walked quickly into the apartment.

Although it was much better than outside, it was still not as good as in the car. It was not until they got home that the warm feeling made them feel relieved.

"Welcome back."

Mahiru, who had been waiting here in advance, gave the three of them a sweet smile.

"The water is ready."

Nangong Mu urged the two girls:"Go wash up."

When they were alone, Mahiru came forward and hugged Nangong Mu.

"Being alone makes me feel a little lonely."

Nangong Mu patted the girl's back gently and said,"We'll be together this holiday."

"Hmm!"

Outside, the snow slowly fell, and the winter flavor became stronger.
